About 6 mos ago I acquired a 1956 model 3200 stepside pick up. I now have it running and it is my daily ride. I am starting on the body and I am sure I can make use of the experience and expertise I have noticed on this forum. The body is basically in sound shape but cosmetically it is rough and I want to restore it to original as close as I can.

What do you have for drive train, 6 or V8, standard or automatic? As the saying goes, we love pictures. So get yourself set up with Photobucket or Flickr, so you can share your pictures with your new friends.

Welcome to the "Bolt".

ncrayd: Welcome to the bolt. I see your in my neighboring state. Since I'm so close to the line what part of NC or you from? If its Shelby or Charlotte maybe we could get together for a dog & Pepsi.

Sounds like you got yourself a good driver and as Lucas said, pics, we love pics!


*if your close by you may want to come to the "Southern Stovebolt Reunion" here in Spartanburg. Its the end of May.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile

Welcome,Ray. I live in Rockingham and work in Laurinburg. Smithfield's BBQ host a cruise in Monday nights in Rockingham and Tuesday nights in Laurinburg. Laurinburg regularly has cars from Fayetteville in attendance. Laurinburg will have 50 to 75 cars and trucks on average, Rockingham just started in August and does not have that number in attendance yet. There is always a stovebolt or two in attendance.
